Very interesting game, great atmosphere. I included it in a compilation video series of all of the Mystic Western Game Jam games, if you'd like to take a look :)

Great visuals and vibe. The mood of the stories was effectively creepy. The voice was grating, but probably in a good way!


I couldn't quite follow but indeed, the voice acting is good!

The voice work and writing itself is great, loved your take on the mystic west- a place inhabited by devils and monsters alike. Great job!

A glorious fever dream under burning stars. Rich and clever and rustic.

This game is so WTF.... the narration is creepy as hell! Fine job!

Really well written and I lovedddd the title screen visuals, I could sit and stare at that for a while. Interesting way of telling a story though I felt a bit like the game part was getting in the way of it a bit.
